Bulls vs Magic prediction

You can make a case for the Bulls and the points because they’re still fighting for the ninth seed to get home court in the first play-in game. The problem is the Bulls are inconsistent as all hell and I never know which team is showing up from night to night. The Magic are playing for a top-4 seed in the East, and they’re the best cover team in the NBA at 63.6 percent. The Magic have also won the last 4 games against the Bulls while covering all 4 of those wins. I’ve blindly backed the Magic for much of the season, and there’s no reason to stop now. Give me the Magic.
